Justice League marks Zach Snyder's third film in the DC Cinematic Universe. (Fourth, if you count Watchmen, but we'll deal with that thorny issue at some other time.) It brings together Ben Affleck as Batman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, as they try to recruit Aquaman (Jason Momoa), The Flash (Ezra Miller), and Cyborg (Ray Fisher) to face the threat of Steppenwolf, General of the armies of Apokolips.

Henry Cavil is also again play Superman in the film, though the circumstance of how he returns following the end of Superman Vs. Batman: Dawn of Justice is unknown.
